Default Jeter and Munson autos. Fake?

I saw these balls on eBay and both signatures look off to me. Seller says there may be clubhouse autos. Are these clubhouse autos?

Jeter looks ok to me, older version of his signature but from the pictures I like it.

We need Chris "the Truth is out there" Williams for firm thoughts on the Jeter. Munson looks good to me

Jeter does look like his minor league signature, but I'm always wary of top name guys at the very top or bottom of a panel. A common forger's trick is to add the star player to an older ball with authentic signatures of no-names in an attempt to boost credibility/value.

Why would Scott Brosius and Joe Torre be on a Jeter Minor League ball? I say fake.

It's not a minor league ball...its a FanFest ball. Jeter was there in 95 or 96 (I was at one of them but can't remember which). I have torre on the sweetspot of mine as well as Jeter, Pettite, Bernie, Tino, Andy Fox, Girardi, and a couple of others I can't remember. Ball is in storage...have to dig it up

Jeter was at the Yankee fanfest at the Coliseum at Columbus Circle in January 1996. The funny thing is he was virtually unknown and had little to no line. Sitting next to him was the better known Andy Fox who had a long line, which included many starry eyed young women.

That was fine with me because I got to chat with Jeter for a few minutes with no pressure to move it along. To my knowledge, Jeter never appeared at another Fanfest... And I think they stopped doing them in 97 or 98.

That said, if this is a fanfest ball, how is Scott Brosius on it?

Jeter is good, an early sig. The Munson is clubhouse IMHO.

Good point...looks like Brosius might have been added at a different time. Jeter is the exact same pen as Tony Cloninger right below him, with the same aging of the ink. On my ball, they all signed with the exact same style pen.

That was the FanFest I was at...I also remember NOONE on Joe Girardi's line as everyone was pissed Mike Stanley was gone!

I believe it could be a clubhouse Jeter.

One thing for certain; Jeter didn't sign that baseball.

Absolutely. There are many modern Yankee team balls with clubhouse sigs in the mix. Late 90s/early 2000s especially, someone was frequently signing for Jeter.
